As also stated in the Basic Policy on Human Resources Management, Nitto Group is focusing on developing employees who respect diversity, promoting diverse work styles, and fostering an open corporate culture, towards creating a environment in which diverse employees can work happily and enthusiastically.
At the Nitto Group, various types of employees, including those with different nationalities, cultural backgrounds, gender, age, and employment type, work in regions throughout the world. We have positioned DE&I as an important issue because it is necessary to change our perspective as we undertake a major shift to ESG management, to flexibly adopt new points of view, and to link that to results. Therefore, we consider creating innovation, enhancing our competitive edge, and recruiting talents as indispensable for achieving even greater growth.
In FY2018, we accelerated related initiatives by establishing a department dedicated to DE&I promotion and indicating what we hope to achieve by promoting DE&I in Nitto Group.
From new ideas brought about by diverse and talented people
Creating Innovation and Enhancing Long-Term Growth Potential
Strengthen competitiveness by swiftly and flexibly responding to various changes, such as market conditions and customer needs, with a variety of ideas
Need to expand employment from a long-term perspective and continue stable business activities amid a decline in the labor-producing population
Having created a logo based on the concept of “mix of people shining bright,”
which symbolizes our promotion of DE&I, we are undertaking activities both inside and outside the company.
We are encouraging related initiatives by appointing a DE&I Promotion Officer for each site and business unit.
